Silver Lining is the fourteenth album by Bonnie Raitt, released in 2002. "Silver Lining [features] Bonnie and her touring band in all their glory." Raitt noted that "[t]he thing that most excites me about Silver Lining is that we finally get all the punch and the funk into the studio that we've gotten live. The band and I have toured together so much, and we have so much combined versatility under our belts, that doing this album was more like play than work."
Masque is the third studio album by American progressive rock band Kansas. The album was released in September 1975, remastered for CD in 2001, and again remastered and reissued on vinyl in 2014. The opening track, "It Takes a Woman's Love ", was remixed for release as a single, including additional guest vocals and segments far different from the album version, but was not popular. The album includes both songs in the epic progressive rock style which Kansas favored and songs which took the heartland rock elements of their sound in a pop-oriented direction, foreshadowing their next album Leftoverture, on which those two approaches were more integrated.
